I saw the trunk show for "Sunday Morning Quilts" and it was fabulous.
The neatest thing was the quilts were all made from actual scraps- they didn't buy fabric or cut into stash for them. (Except one: apparently she made the quilt, didn't love the colors and then only had like 4 days to make it again, so she had to cut into some of her stash to get enough scraps in the new colorway.) |

There is a tute on this board using adding machine paper to sew small scraps on 3 x 1/2 inches. Those strips can be sewn together and used as fabric.
http://www.quiltingboard.com/tutoria...er-t56940.html I have given up buying books on scrappy quilts as there are so many lovely ones online, Bonnie Hunters and Maryquilts to name just two. |
Go to the library and page through the books in the quilting section. You may very well find something there.

There are many scrap quilt books available. I have mine packed away at this time-getting my house ready to sell. Kim Diehl quilts come to mind. She has several books out.

I am a fan of using the Nickel Quilt books for scraps. There are three in the series. I have them all and continue to use them. Sometimes I reduce or enlarge the scale , to suit my scraps.

Ditto what Lori S said. I have lots of scrap quilts books, but these are my favorites!
